hello, colleagues.

my name is Irina. I'm a junior java developer with a small amount of commercial experience. my long-term goal is to apply for a UK global talent visa in a few years. right now, I lack public contributions (articles, significant open-source projects, or high-visibility collaboration) that the visa requires.

what I'm looking for:
I would be genuinely happy to find like-minded people who are open to communication, friendship on LinkedIn, and joint activities. specifically:

writing technical articles together (in English or bilingual).

creating an open-source Java project from scratch (or contributing to an existing one).

participating in your project if you need an enthusiastic junior.

what I offer:
dedication, willingness to learn, and sincere gratitude for your mentorship or collaboration. I don't pretend to be an expert – but I'll work hard and give credit to all co-authors/contributors.

if you:

have a pet project where a beginner could be useful,

want to co-author a blog post (e.g., "how we debugged smth in java"),

or simply don't mind adding a new friendly junior to your network,

please leave a comment or reach out. I'll be happy and grateful for response.

thank you for your time, and have a great day.
